A half-baked idea...

Man, you ain't kiddin' there.
The southern states are NO place to be in the summer. Way too hot and humid.
 
The heat? That's because we're closer to hell down here. S8-N does live in FL, you know.
 
Come on you bunch of girly-men... Last summer I didn't have A/C in my home, vehicle, or job... I froze my ass off when I walked into a convenience store...
This summer I had A/C in my house... but not my job or truck...
Everyplace in N.O. is air conditioned like a motherflounder... The only time you have to be outside in the weather is when you are walking from one bar to the other...

True enough about the air conditioning. And hell, I can float right down the Mississippi River on a log to New Orleans from where I live in St. Louis.... of course, getting back would require a little more work.
Seriously though, New Orleans, Denver, Phoenix, Zimbabwe, I don't care. I'll go anywhere.
 
K - I got out the atlas and found that New Orleans, city of dreams, is about 2 hours by truck from Florida. Let's split the difference, then. Halfway between Florida and Portland, where they manufacture my soundcard, lies Denver (or Boulder, which is alternatively cool and makes its own beer which tastes better than most). Now, I *want* to go to Nyawlins, but I also *really* like the southwest. (Plus it's dead centre from the point of view of Montana and points north of the 49th parallel). Neutral turf don't bother me, neither. I got a computer - I can surf up Greyhound days and prices. But face it - Dr John <isn't> gonna play Boulder in June. So we might have to.
 
how bout nyc ? its nice in june... and about 15 minutes from me... hehe.. i would mention miami , but its too damn hot down there.. not much of a music scene down there either.. well , at least not what you all listen too.. but..nyc is a decent idea , and im not biased because i live here , besides.. ive never been to new orleans , and wouldnt mind goin..

Put me down for the Voodoo town. I'll bring my Dr. John the Night Tripper "Gris Gris" album down for a hopeful autograph, my mojo bag for a little recharging, and did you know that Liquor stores there have drive-through windows that sell mixed drinks in cups? Gee, in my town you get the ice in the cup but you have to mix it yourself. Now that's inspiration my friends!
Let's all walk on gilded splinters...
 
Gee, I'm all torn. I'll be in NYC next June to see friends anyway, if all goes according to plan (in shallah, as some say), but my heart's set on N.O. I'll be bringing CDs too, not to get signed, but to listen to in case the good doctor ain't in town. :)
 
I just checked the House of Blues schedule and sure 'nuff... Dr. John is playing Dec. 28-29...
Gregg Allman and friends are playing on the 26th & 27th...
And check this week out: The second week of Dec : TOTO, Steve Vai, Insane Clown Posse, Megadeth, and David Allen Coe... All in a row!!!! No kidding!!!! That's entertainment!!!!
You gotta love the H.O.B...

satan , i didnt think of you as the type of person that would like ICP .. figured you would call them a bunch of make up faced rectal pirates that need to get some vasaline and hide back in the closet... then again , im wrong alot...

Never said I liked 'em... It would be cool if they hung around town for a few days to beat the hell out of David Allen Coe...

Oh S8-N, I am up for that challenge. But, if you win, you get to drive the Echo Star rig around to pick up sheep!!!

How about Portland Oregon guys, that way I don't have to travel. Just think, we could have a REAL MANS contest, who can play an electric guitar AND sing in a microphone in the rain the longest. This should cure all of the "mustache rock" dudes of their non Y2K compliance issues, as well as elevate Slackman 2K into the same status as Hitler was....... :)

Also, we could have Tanya Harding wack anyone in the knee if they don't drink enough of the Northwest's great micro-brews. I believe in equal opportunity obliditory, I think 6 an hour would be a good place to start........ :)

Man, what did I ever do to be compared to Hitler? We got a guy who goes by Satan, and I'M the bad guy, huh? :)

Hey, Slack, calm down - he's been drinking, obviously, and not thinking straight! Everybody knows that if you drink six beers an hour, you're useless with sheep. Ask a sheep if you don't believe me. Shucks. Mind you, there's a lot of sheep in Portland. :)
 
That's his excuse...he's counting them!!!
